Christmas cookie time

I think I am going to bake this year for the holidays. What cookies do you bake? I need some ideas.

When my mom made Christmas cookies, these were my favorite. They are kind of like little candies or nuggets, maybe bar cookies is what they are called. Mom called them Waldorf Macaroons

Pour

1 1/2 C. HOT WATER over
1 C. QUICK OATS, set aside.

1/2 C. SHORTENING,
1 C. SUGAR,
1 C. BROWN SUGAR-add

2 EGGS,
1 T. CINNAMON,
1 T. NUTMEG,
1/2 T. SALT,
1 T.. VANILLA.

Add OAT MIX,
1 1/3 C. FLOUR and
1 t. BAKING SODA. Mix well and bake in a flat pan 30-35 minutes.
Have topping ready:
6 T. BUTTER

1 C. NUTS

1 t. VANILLA
Mix well and put on cake. Put it under the broiler until lightly browned, approximately 2 minutes. Watch closely!

Thank you for the recipe Norm. It sounds similar to an oatmeal cake where the same type of topping was put on and then broiled. I can't wait to try these.
